(All original rude boys know what do I,
|
so heed warning as I stand before you without sorrow,
|
driven eternally by the immortality of blackness,
|
which leaves me confused when gangstas die today,
|
the sun will still rise tomorrow)
|
|
Aiyo, pain stains my brain, I go insane
|
At times I wonder if I even know my name
|
Or who I be, who I perceive to be me
|
In a world where the fake get payed fully
|
You can't fool me, if you can't cycle the greenbacks
|
I mean that, so just chill with your feedback
|
And all, all that talk about billboard charts
|
Number one hits with no heart
|
Now where as a kite gets you high like the rising sun
|
I be breakin' brothers down and suprising 'em
|
With my lyrical prophocies, no one's stopping me
|
Cause I magnify words to high velocity
|
Sing this, do you know where you're going to?
|
Do you like the things that life is showing you?
|
Where are you going to?
|
|
[Chorus]
|
I rise like the sun sometimes, but then I fall
|
And like a black moon I rise when the night falls
|
And when the night falls, the mic illuminates
|
And it's the ultra-violet rays that keep me rising on my mission
|
|
I take a penny for your thoughts, a nickel for your desire
|
I got the vocab to set the world on fire
|
Now I remember laying back as a youth
|
Just looking at the sun, wondering about the truth
|
And how it's supposed to be
|
And how at times if the music felt close to me
|
Rocking spots since the age of sixteeen
|
You know what I mean, as I grab the microphone,
|
come correct and hit the scene
|
|
So let it fly baby, let if fly baby
|
I got the vocal canibus to get you high baby
|
You know these brothers rock the spot when it's all said and done
|
Definetly represent because we rise like the sun
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
I'll save the vanity for your man and expanded to global spaces
|
You can see the cold heart looks on their faces
|
It's all a plan to exterminate the truest
|
Kos meditate like a microphone buddhist
|
Now, I'm not a teacher
|
Just trying to reach ya
|
I'll make you recognize
|
The sun will always rise
|
And even when the night falls, the moon illuminates brilliantly
|
It's all resellient, see
|
Sometimes I think about this world that we live in
|
And get fed up, and yo I think I want to give in
|
But it's the ultra-violet rays
|
Saving days
|
And stimulates my melonance
|
To eloquance
|
|
[Chorus]
|
